The Spirit of God in Your Life

If your life is kind of ho-hum, just trucking along, that is in its way the presence of the spirit. We are to be like lilies that neither toil nor spin, even though Solomon in all his glory was not a raid, like one of these. If God feels horribly distant, silent, dry as dust, that is where the spirit is. Theophilus North by Thornton Wilder is a kind of picture of a saint who ends up having this amazing ministry without really trying for it.
